Strictly’s James Cracknell’s ex finds love with new man nearly 15 years her junior also called James

JAMES Cracknell’s ex-wife has found love with a new man... also called James.

Six months after announcing the end of their 17 year marriage, Bev Turner is dating 31-year-old eco-housing property developer, James Pritchett - a man nearly 15 years her junior.

The couple were introduced through a mutual friend and have been on several dates, the Sun on Sunday can reveal.

A source said: “It’s still pretty new but both Bev and James number two are really happy.

“He’s a lovely chap, and the pair have a lot of the same interests. He’s met nearly all her friends and they think he’s brilliant too.”

The couple - pictured here at Chris Evans’ Carfest which she was presenting alongside the Virgin DJ - have been dating for around two months.

In March TV presenter Bev, 45, and Olympic rowing champ James, 47 - who is appearing on Strictly - confirmed their split.

Two weeks ago the sportsman was pictured kissing his new girlfriend, American financier Jordan Connell.
